Greetings,

I’ve just updated to Rails 2 and have rebuilt on of my apps, but I’m  
having a headache with the paths. Please can someone explain to me what  
I need to do.

The path is simple:

[http://localhost:3000/home/en](http://localhost:3000/home/en)

which worked before, but now throws a 404 error.

In my routes.rb file I have:

map.connect “”, :controller=\>“g\_pub”, :action=\>“index”,  
:path=\>[“home”,“en”]

for some reason it’s splitting up the path incorrectly. If I look at the  
SQL that gets generated I see:

g\_blocks.name=‘en’ AND g\_blocks.location = ‘/home/’ AND  
g\_published\_blocks.g\_language\_id=NULL

whereas what I really need is:

g\_blocks.name=‘home’ AND g\_blocks.location = ‘/’ AND  
g\_published\_blocks.g\_language\_id=‘en’

In other words, I need the following values:

g\_blocks.location → /  
g\_blocks.name → home  
g\_blocks.g\_language\_id → en

but what I’m getting at the moment is:

g\_blocks.location → /home/  
g\_blocks.name → en  
g\_blocks.g\_language\_id → NULL

Can anyone see what I need to do? Many thanks.
